Frederic Conger Wood Fellowship for Research in Europe
Established in 1993 with a generous bequest from the estate of Cornell alumnus and trustee, Frederic Conger Wood, this fellowship supports the European Summer Research Program for undergraduate research in Europe. Juniors are invited to submit applications to pursue summer research projects in Europe. Selected students spend the spring semester prior to departure preparing the project under the guidance of an advisor. During the summer, the fellows spend 6-8 weeks of field study in Europe and on their return write up the results of their research, often in the form of an honors thesis. The annual competition is conducted during the fall semester. Interested Cornell Juniors should prepare a project proposal with the assistance of a faculty advisor in their major field.
